This adds the nodename callback for struct class, struct device_type and struct device, to allow drivers to send userspace hints on the device name and subdirectory that should be used for it.

We're going to remove the FIRMWARE_NAME_MAX definition in order to avoid any firmware name length restriction. With the FIRMWARE_NAME_MAX removal, the ds.c reference becomes useless as we dont need to check for the firmware name length anymore.

The firmware loader has a statically allocated 30 bytes long string for the firmware id (a.k.a. the firmware file name). There is no reason why we couldnt allocate it dynamically, and avoid having restrictions on the firmware names lengths.

debugfs: dont stop on first failed recursive delete While running a while loop of removing a module that removes a debugfs directory with debugfs_remove_recursive, and at the same time doing a while loop of cat of a file in that directory, I would hit a point where somehow the cat of the file caused the remove to fail. The result is that other files did not get removed when the module was removed. I simple read of one of those file can oops the kernel because the operations to the file no longer exist (removed by module). The funny thing is that the file being cat'ed was removed. It was the siblings that were not. I see in the code to debugfs_remove_recursive there's a test that checks if the child fails to bail out of the loop to prevent an infinite loop. What this patch does is to still try any siblings in that directory. If all the siblings fail, or there are no more siblings, then we exit the loop. This fixes the above symptom, but... This is no full proof. It makes the debugfs_remove_recursive a bit more robust, but it does not explain why the one file failed. There may be some kind of delay deletion that makes the debugfs think it did not succeed. So this patch is more of a fix for the symptom but not the disease. This patch still makes the debugfs_remove_recursive more robust and until I can find out why the bug exists, this patch will keep the kernel from oopsing in most cases. Even after the cause is found I think this change can stand on its own and should be kept.

Kay Sievers authored
During bootup performance tracing we see repeated occurrences of /sys/kernel/uid/* events for the same uid, leading to a, in this case, rather pointless userspace processing for the same uid over and over. This is usually caused by tools which change their uid to "nobody", to run without privileges to read data supplied by untrusted users. This change delays the execution of the (already existing) scheduled work, to cleanup the uid after one second, so the allocated and announced uid can possibly be re-used by another process. This is the current behavior, where almost every invocation of a binary, which changes the uid, creates two events: $ read START < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \ for i in `seq 100`; do su --shell=/bin/true bin; done; \ read END < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \ echo $(($END - $START)) 178 With the delayed cleanup, we get only two events, and userspace finishes a bit faster too: $ read START < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \ for i in `seq 100`; do su --shell=/bin/true bin; done; \ read END < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \ echo $(($END - $START)) 1 Acked-by: Dhaval Giani <dhaval@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

In the near future, the driver core is going to not allow direct access to the driver_data pointer in struct device. Instead, the functions dev_get_drvdata() and dev_set_drvdata() should be used. These functions have been around since the beginning, so are backwards compatible with all older kernel versions.
